And at Nara, Thursday is $1 Sushi Night. Get there early, especially if it's during cold-weather season, when they can't make use of their outdoor seating. When it's not $1 Sushi Night, expect to pay quite a bit more. The first time I ventured into new territory, I tried the scallop (sorry, don't remember the Japanese names for what I tried) and yellowfin. They were both so sweet and delicious. That night, a friend and I also split one of the Korean barbecue dinners - a dish with beef and vegetables that you put on a lettuce leaf and ate like a wrap. So good! The service can be a little slow when they are really busy, but it is worth it. At a group dinner, fellow diners also liked the sesame chicken and the California rolls. Dinner accompaniments include a tasty green salad and a lovely salad of cucumber and fruit.
